[0:00] I was wondering if we could just start bringing... Sir, the right...
[0:28] There's nothing to praise for your Friday night effect.
[0:43] Most of the people out there should have listened to it.
[0:46] Oh, they've heard it on the radio.
[0:47] That's amazing how people...
[0:52] The one man who first talked to me about it was the head of the Associated Institute of Medicine.
[1:12] He's an old ball player.
[1:13] He's talking for the Detroit Tigers.
[1:15] He's not old.
[1:16] He looks like healthy guy.
[1:18] Orchard, I think.
[1:18] His name is O-R-C-U-T. And I went to the Toll Silver plant.
[1:20] They were so nice to me.
[1:21] I'll give it to you.
[1:21] I'll give it to you.
[1:22] Is that nice?
[1:45] They all like it Friday night.
[1:46] Oh, yes.
[1:46] They all look like they need something to eat.
[1:47] Whatever your place is, either in San Clemente or Florida, you might like a little, just, it's a, it's a, it's a little, isn't that pretty?
[1:50] I need that.
[1:50] And they were so nice back home.
[1:50] They were so nice back home.
[1:56] One of our patients is doing just that.
[2:04] Where could you use it?
[2:17] I'm going to make a picture of that.
[2:17] Yeah, but all of it is cranky.
[2:18] Do you remember that gentleman?
[2:23] That is very easy.
[2:39] That ain't gonna be okay.
[2:43] I know.
[2:43] You gotta have a chat with Alexander.
[2:45] He'll call Alexander and say that I need to go to Spine.
[2:47] He's out in the park.
[2:48] He's an enormously capable man.
[2:50] He's an enormously capable man.
[2:51] Bird oil, and his father is Joe Batchelor's poster.
[2:52] Oh, that's what I wondered.
[2:53] That's right.
[2:54] Okay, very well.
[3:00] Thank you very much.
[3:08] You've got to wait a minute.
[3:11] We've got to wait until I get the turn of the camera.
[3:12] Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
[3:59] She was so pleased with it.
[4:14] She's got one good line there, though.
[4:15] They carried your governor's speech, apparently.
[4:19] The whole text of it.
[4:22] Where you talked about your mother and welfare and what happened.
[4:23] So maybe I can give that to Ray.
[5:16] You know, it's awful.
[5:31] I'm sick of the will.
[5:32] Oh, I am too.
[5:32] I am too.
[5:32] Why don't you tell them to get around the will for a thing?
[5:34] I don't know.
[5:40] I don't know.
[5:40] I don't know.
[5:40] I don't know.
[5:41] I don't know.
[5:41] I don't know.
[5:41] I don't know.
[5:41] I don't know.
[5:46] This is Mitchell.
[5:47] Mitchell's not here.
[5:50] There he is.
[5:50] Oh, my.
[5:51] That's right.
[5:51] He didn't deserve it.
[5:57] Everything on top of it.
[6:03] They get too tired.
[6:04] It was excellent.
[6:05] They had two or three parties, and it was like campaigning, really.
[6:09] But it was just wonderful.
[6:10] People were so interested in everything.
[6:15] And they were all?
[6:15] I'll talk to you sometime about Buzz Jaeger and whether he's the head of Alcoa.
[6:22] Love Sager, it is.
[6:27] Yes.
[6:27] Whether he should go ahead and sort of be an advisor to Ted Kennedy so he can stay in close to find out what they're into.
[6:42] Yes.
[6:42] But Ted Kennedy likes him.
[6:42] Good.
[6:43] Oh, I can tell you right away.
[6:44] Move in.
[6:46] Okay, is this anything you think he'd want anywhere in his house?
[6:49] Any little pewter trash?
[6:59] You know, Manolo can use it to serve things with, you know.
[7:21] He brings things out.
[7:22] Let's have Manolo.
[7:22] Yeah.
[7:22] Yeah.
[7:22] And it's a beautiful thing.
[7:23] It's a beautiful joy to have.
[7:23] And Manolo can use it to serve things.
[7:24] Yeah.
[7:33] um just over a weekend or something thank you
[7:57] Oh, we think of that place.
[8:14] Oh, right.
[8:14] I just haven't thought of it before.
[8:16] You remember how many years?
[8:17] I surely do.
[8:17] And everything's good.
[8:18] Yeah.
[8:18] The spirit up there is pretty good.
[8:18] That was fine.
[8:19] It was good.
[8:19] Well, you know, the things that actually turn around a great deal is the last one.
[8:24] and the China thing cooled, and the economy starts to move.
[8:36] Well, the Toll Filmer man, the president of that, I mean, Gordon, that's, you know, starting to tell me all this business, told me to tell you that their first quarter is up, I think, something like 11% from last year's first quarter, something like that.
[8:51] You'd like to know that?
[8:52] Yes, sir.
[8:52] What did you... Oh, I see.
[8:53] I didn't know where he was.
[8:53] I don't know.
